Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) says that President Trump should consider resigning over accusations of past sexual misconduct from multiple women.

“We have a president of the United States who acknowledged on a tape – widely seen all over this country – that he assaulted women,” he said on “CBS This Morning” Thursday.

“So I would hope that maybe the president of the United States might pay attention to what’s going on and also think about resigning,” the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate added.

Sanders added that American society must change if it is to overcome problems from sexual misconduct.

These are the other high-profile men accused of sexual harassment and misconduct following Harvey Weinstein

Many of the allegations have resulted in resignation or termination from roles.

“What I worry about right now as I speak is that in restaurants, in offices all over this country where you have bosses that are not famous, there is harassment, women are being intimidated, and we need a cultural revolution in this country,” he said.

Sanders was referencing an infamous audio clip of Trump that emerged in October 2016, potentially endangering his presidential election campaign.

The recording captured Trump lewdly talking about women in 2005 with Billy Bush, who was then the host of NBC’s “Access Hollywood.”

“Just kiss,” Trump said of women in the tape. “I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab ‘em by the p---y. You can do anything.”
